Direct variation is of the form: y=kx (inverse variation is of the form y=k/x)
Assuming that k is positive :)
y increases as x increases and y decreases as x decreases. There is a direct ratio that is described by k. k=y/x.
I don't think they are equivalent. try it yourself
To let the variable alone you can follow these steps: 1) subtract 228 from both sides 2) divide both sides by 4. This is the solution: 1) 4y + 228 - 228 = 352 - 228 => 2) 4y = 124 => 3) (4y)/4 = 124/4 => 4) y = 31. Then, <span>the answer is the option A. y = 31. </span>
